there are simply too many Elvis Costello albums on the 1001 album generator. so far a full tenth of my albums generated are EC. at that rate I just won't be able to get through them all.

the 4 yo was throwing a tantrum earlier, so he got sent to his room.
I heard a loud bang, and then him crying in pain, not anger/frustration/etc.
"Art, you ok dude?"
- (choking back his years) "nooooo. my foot really hurts!"
"you kick the door?"
- "no. I kicked the [stuffed] cat at the door.
"yeah, that'll do it"
- "and i stomped a lot"
this happened hours ago. if you know 4 uear olds, he's in one of those manic-depressive cycles where everything makes him throw a tantrum or he's running around the house, happy as a clam, screaming in joy.
"In clinical trials, positive results were achieved with “Red Barchetta” and “2112: Discovery,” in which a car and a guitar are discovered respectively."
Our dog is on her last legs with us. She's a rescue that we adopted in 2015 at about a year and half or two years old.
We attempted to crate train her when we first got her in 2015 and she would pant and shake to the point where the bottom of the crate or whatever we put on the bottom to make her more comfortable would be soaked by the time we got home. In an attempt to give her more space we gated her in the kitchen (2016-18) but she chewed on a door and two door frames. We then gave her more space but she would still occasionally chew on one of the door frames and today she scratched/chewed on a window sill to the point of destroying it.
We thought fencing in our yard would be a fix but Keeping her outdoors during the day is out as she attempts to dig under the fence. (And the house.) And she barks at any person or animal that moves.
We are now going to try crating her again. She's not going to like it but we can't let her continue to destroy our house. The alternative is finding a new home for her which we really don't want to do.

Anybody have any sage advice?
Have you talked to your vet about whether anxiety meds might be appropriate?

That's something that I hadn't thought of. I'll try that.
(Last time we tried to get behavioral advice from the vet it was about her losing her mind whenever we'd take her on a walk and she'd see another dog. They recommended someone who told us that it was our fault. I can't remember why but it definitely wasn't the dog's fault. So we spent $5K on a fence for her to dig under.)

Definitely talk to your vet. I use CBD on my pups and it helps Maya chill with her barking at everything and calms Tyger's anxiety a little. He'll still pee, but he'll do it on the potty pad and not flood the hall and bathroom.

Stupid fucking gas shortage in NWFL. I was driving to work and saw a line of cars at a convenience store I stop by that’s generally empty. I had a half tank and don’t plan on going anywhere for a few weeks, so I wasn’t too worried. But at lunch I figured I might as well go to the Raceway down the street to top off the tank. They had lines, and all the regular/mid grade/premium pumps had bags over the handles. But they did have “ethanol free” for 3.59 a gallon (87 Octane). So I filled up and this old lady came up to my window and asked me what ethanol free was and was it okay to use. I told her yeah, it’s just missing the grain alcohol (which is usually added to gas to appease corn farmers). Not sure when they’ll run out of that too, but at least I got a couple weeks worth of localized driving ahead (366 miles to empty).

Sounds like she's understimulated and/or undertrained. What breed is she? She might have a high need for exercise. A tired dog is a happy dog, as they say. Have you redirected her chewing or just sought to stop it? It's not enough to say "bad dog" and hope she finds something not-awful to do. You gotta redirect that behavior towards something (such as a dog chew) and then praise them when they do good behavior - it gives them an outlet for their instincts in a more appropriate way. Consistency is key. Also if she has one spot she likes to dig, put some of her poo in the hole. She'll stop digging there at least. I also agree that a lot of this can be related to a naturally anxious disposition - especially if it only happens when she's alone. In that case it could very well be separation anxiety, in which case you might want to look into a trainer possibly in conjunction with CBD. * Just reread your initial comment about her crate being soaked from her panting. That's anxiety; baby's scared.

Yeah, she has a bunch of chew toys (and a ton of the kids' toys).
We're not entirely sure of the breed since she was a rescue but the dominant ones seem to be Jack Russell and Pit Bull.

I think an adult person could take a goose but it might do a little more damage than one might expect. I've heard of geese breaking people's bones and also the band Goose melting people's faces.
